Semih Metals, based in Istanbul, Turkey, stands out as a trusted manufacturer and supplier of top-notch metal products, including Duplex Steel Bars and Rods. Known for their precision in manufacturing and commitment to international quality standards, Semih Metals serves a variety of industries such as oil & gas, marine, chemical processing, and construction. Duplex Steel is celebrated for its remarkable blend of high strength and outstanding corrosion resistance, making it perfect for tough environments. Semih Metals offers Duplex Steel Bars and Rods in a diverse range of sizes and specifications, ensuring consistent quality, timely delivery, and reliable performance in both structural and pressure-based applications.
Duplex Steel Bars and Rods are crafted from stainless steel grades that feature a unique dual-phase microstructure of austenite and ferrite. Common grades like UNS S31803 and S32205 contain about 22% chromium (Cr), 5–6% nickel (Ni), 3% molybdenum (Mo), and nitrogen (N). These elements work together to provide exceptional resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking, especially in chloride-rich environments. On the mechanical side, Duplex Steel boasts high yield strength (around 450–550 MPa) and solid fatigue resistance. These characteristics, combined with excellent weldability and formability, make Duplex Steel Bars and Rods ideal for demanding industrial and marine applications.
